Duct Cleaning for a More Efficient HVAC System

If you’re like the average homeowner, you probably don’t give much thought to the ductwork responsible for moving conditioned air from your cooling system through the vents. However, since we’re at the tail end of summer, giving your system many months to accumulate dirt and dust, now is the time to start thinking about those air ducts.

If left to build-up, a layer of dirt and dust can cause problems for your household and your air conditioning system. This is a great time to catch up on some maintenance by scheduling a ductwork cleaning appointment with our team.

What Is Duct Cleaning?

This is a very thorough cleaning of your entire ductwork system. Air ducts can be difficult to access, which is why it’s a good idea to schedule duct cleaning with a professional. Additionally, trained technicians will use professional-grade vacuums and tools to ensure that the cleaning is very comprehensive.

How Does This Benefit Your Air Conditioner?

Properly cleaned ducts add efficiency to your air conditioning system. In fact, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), removing just 4/10 of an inch of dust from your air ducts can reduce your monthly energy use by up to 20%. This is because any air restriction caused by the build-up in your vents has been removed.

Additionally, clean ducts can increase the lifespan of your HVAC system. This system operates under an immense amount of stress for the large majority of the year, which can make it age prematurely if not taken care of. Keep all aspects of your system running optimally—including your ductwork—to ensure that this is not the case.

Having your ductwork professionally cleaned will also help lower your energy bills, provide your home and family with better indoor air quality, and reduce the allergens that exist in your living space. Fall is a great time to schedule this service, so be sure to give us a call today!
